24/0 but they are only 3 day old sprouts but i was wondering if i could switch from 24/0 to 12/12 after 4 weeks of veg

ipersonally wont flower under 18inches but thats my opinion you can switch to 12/12 whenever you want and start flowering

Yea a lot of factors but think this way, when you start flowering it grows about double it's size. Sativas tend to stretch more though.

I'm not an expert but I think it would also depend on the type of plant it is. For instance if you want to grow a long flowering sativa indoors you can put it into 12/12 almost immediately after it successfully spouts, I'm not sure on the exact amount of time it's supposed to be in the veg light after sprouting though.

I do however have experience with two 12/12 grows from seeds. One showed sex in two weeks and started flowering shortly there after but didn't put out much; maybe half an ounce.

The other one was the polar opposite. It took about a month to show sex and flowered for a long, long time and gave me a pleasant 1.25 oz. I think the reason I got so much off of it was because I super cropped the fuck out of it before flowering and even during flowering.

yo


my shit started flowering after the 1st month,

about a month and 1wk

i dunno what strain it is
but i know it's sativa dominant which makes sense cause of how it's stretching

lightin was 10am-10pm (9:30 or sum shit, earliest)

now my lightings 10am-6pm being the earliest ...7pm, 8pm

you can check my shit out in Outdoor Growing "New Grow, 1st"

you cant really do too much to make it dank, depends on strain, nuts, enviorment, ect.. yu get the point


but soon that bitch start's to flower, you can build it more, with better taste, more thicker maybe

some say molasses helps out a lot.. i haven't used the stuff yet.. jus nuts



so molasses, and nuts

Well I don't know about dank but he can improve the quality if the weed was poorly grown. If it was already dank then sure. Or he could luck out in the genetic lottery and get a plant that is a forebear of a new evolutionary change that allows the plant to make more THC than its strain is currently genetically programmed to do.

I do similar to a SOG, a bunch of small plants crammed together, so once my clones have a pretty good root mass, I veg them for one week and then straight into flower
